Well Newschoolers, my mom is getting married tomorrow. On the beach. Now what she wants is an island version of The wedding march (Here comes the bride). Me and my soon to be step dad has looked high and low for one but we just cant find one. Im coming to you guys to ask you to help find one. AS long as it has an island feel its good. plus mad karma to whoever finds it for me. thanks

My dad is from Hawaii. For their wedding song, my mom and dad used the Kamehameha Waltz by Emma Veary. Its a beautiful waltz but not really a "here comes the bride" type song.
Ku kilakila 'o Kamehameha
Ku'u home ho'ona'auao
I ka la'i o Kaiwi'ula
Uluwehi i ka lau kiawe
A he home na'u i aloha
A e ha'aheo mau loa ai
E ola mau 'o Kamehameha.
Nou e Pauahi lani nui
Ka mana'o e ho'oho hau'oli nei
Ola ia 'oe na kini pua
O hawai'i kulaiwi
Na hana lua 'ole a ka pu'uwai o ke ali'i aloha
Kau kou inoa i ka wekiu
A nou ku'u mele nei.
Translation:
Majestic stands Kamehameha
My home of education
In the calm of kaiwi'ula
Adorned by kiawe trees
It is a home that I love
And of which I am always proud
Long may Kamehameha live.
For you, O great Pauahi lani
Our exclamations of joy
Life is granted by you to the multitudes of descendants
Of Hawai'i's native stock
The unequaled gift from the heart of the beloved chiefess
May your name be highly honored
And for you is this, my song.
